The last letter

The paper was blank,

And he was at leisure. 

He grabbed the pen beside him Dipped in the ink inside it.

'Dear love' he began,

And wrote till the paper was marked 'Love and faithfully' signed he.

Folded that page

Sealed it with wax and some sleepless nights.

Got it delivered to me, All it said was "Adieu".

I opened to see what mysteries it held; 

But when I opened it,

But before I realised, he was long gone

 Ahead in life, I cried my heart out,

 But even the heavens couldn't change that fate.

And maybe ahead in love.

And that was the last letter I received from him.
